Help from: --help-basic:
Usage: recs-tognuplot <args> [<files>]
   Create a graph of points from a record stream using GNU Plot. Defaults to
   creatinga scatterplot of points, can also create a bar or line graph

   For the --using and --plot arguments, you may want to reference a GNU Plot
   tutorial, though it can get quite complex, here is one example:

   http://www.gnuplot.info/docs/node100.html

Arguments:
   --key|-k <keys>              May be specified multiple times, may be comma
                                separated. These are the keys to graph. If you
                                have more than 2 keys, you must specify a --
                                using statement or use --bargraph or --lines May
                                be a keyspec or keygroup, see '--help-keys' for
                                more information
   --using <using spec>         A 'using' string passed directly to gnuplot, you
                                can use keys specified with --key in the order
                                specified. For instance --key count,date,avg
                                with --using '3:2' would plot avg vs. date. May
                                be specified multiple times
   --plot <plot spec>           May be specified multiple times, may be comma
                                separated. A directive passed directly to plot,
                                e.g. --plot '5 title "threshold"'
   --precommand <gnuplot spec>  May be specified multiple times, may be comma
                                separated. A command executed by gnuplot
                                before executing plot, e.g. --precommand 'set
                                xlabel "foo"'
   --title <title>              Specify a title for the entire graph
   --label <label>              Labels each --using line with the indicated
                                label
   --file <filename>            Name of output png file. Will append .png if not
                                present Defaults to tognuplot.png
   --lines                      Draw lines between points, may specify more than
                                2 key, each field is a line
   --bargraph                   Draw a bar graph, each field is a bar, may
                                specify than 2 key, each field is a bar
   --gnuplot-command            Location of gnuplot binary if not on path
   --dump-to-screen             Instead of making a graph, dump the generated
                                gnuplot script to STDOUT
   --filename-key|fk <keyspec>  Add a key with the source filename (if no
                                filename is applicable will put NONE)

  Help Options:

   Graph the count field
      recs-tognuplot --field count
   Graph count vs. date with a threshold line
      recs-tognuplot --field count,date --plot "5 title 'threshold'"
   Graph a complicated expression, with a label

Help from: --help-keygroups:
KEY GROUPS
   SYNTAX: !regex!opt1!opt2... Key groups are a way of specifying multiple
   fields to a recs command with a single argument or function. They are
   generally regexes, and have several options to control what fields they
   match. By default you give a regex, and it will be matched against all first
   level keys of a record to come up with the record list. For instance, in a
   record like this:

   { 'zip': 1, 'zap': 2, 'foo': { 'bar': 3 } }

   Key group: !z! would get the keys 'zip' and 'zap'

   You can have a literal '!' in your regex, just escape it with a \.

   Normally, key groups will only match keys whose values are scalars. This can
   be changed with the 'returnrefs' or rr flag.

   With the above record !f! would match no fields, but !f!rr would match foo
   (which has a value of a hash ref)

   Options on KeyGroups:
      returnrefs, rr  - Return keys that have reference values (default:off)
      full, f         - Regex should match against full keys (recurse fully)
      depth=NUM,d=NUM - Only match keys at NUM depth (regex will match against
                        full keyspec)
      sort, s         - sort keyspecs lexically

Help from: --help-keyspecs:
  KEY SPECS
   A key spec is short way of specifying a field with prefixes or regular
   expressions, it may also be nested into hashes and arrays. Use a '/' to nest
   into a hash and a '#NUM' to index into an array (i.e. #2)

   An example is in order, take a record like this:

     {"biz":["a","b","c"],"foo":{"bar 1":1},"zap":"blah1"}
     {"biz":["a","b","c"],"foo":{"bar 1":2},"zap":"blah2"}
     {"biz":["a","b","c"],"foo":{"bar 1":3},"zap":"blah3"}

   In this case a key spec of 'foo/bar 1' would have the values 1,2, and 3 in
   the respective records.

   Similarly, 'biz/#0' would have the value of 'a' for all 3 records

   You can also prefix key specs with '@' to engage the fuzzy matching logic

   Fuzzy matching works like this in order, first key to match wins
     1. Exact match ( eq )
     2. Prefix match ( m/^/ )
     3. Match anywehre in the key (m//)

   So, in the above example '@b/#2', the 'b' portion would expand to 'biz' and 2
   would be the index into the array, so all records would have the value of 'c'

   Simiarly, @f/b would have values 1, 2, and 3

   You can escape / with a \. For example, if you have a record:
   {"foo/bar":2}

   You can address that key with foo\/bar
